ORIGIN: Africa
ENVIROMENTAL VALUES: temperature 25 ° -29 ° C daytime, 20-23 ° C nighttime humidity 60-75%
FEEDING: small insects for spiderlings (they prefer drosophile) and, from size M, meal insects (crickets, cockroaches, worms, locusts) of adequate size are good.

Requires weekly calcium supplements (in water or through the food offered), to encourage the formation of its exoskeleton during the moulting process
RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT: medium-sized terrarium or faunabox, 30x30x30; for spiderlings it is perfectly fine to insert them in the classic specific containers until they reach an adequate size to be then moved to a terrarium, always of small dimensions.

Very light daily sprays or every 2 days are necessary, as the substrate must still be dry but not excessively, creating different humidity areas
